Hello everyone, I'm Sere.
Forum & Ingame: Serenadae
I'm from the south of Germany and I'm a long-time RoM player. I first came into contact with the game back in 2012 after the servers of the game I played beforehand, Sacred 2 (what a fitting guildname I have :D), were shut down for good.
Soon I was captivated by the complex itemization and customization possibilities of the game and over the years I got to know many nice people and guilds on my server Draiochta, such as Fairplay, Shadowoflight, Blackknights and finally my current guild: Sâcrêd.
Over time, we grew together as a community and thus we were shocked to witness the apex of the publisher's greed when they announced the diamond restock changes. This was the final straw for me and my guild and we decided to quit RoM, even though we really liked the game itself.
But then one of our members, Allissya, who played on Arcadia some time ago suggested trying out this server. First we were unsure how to think of it, because non-mainstream servers had kind of a stigma to them (which is not justified at all), moreover starting anew was not a very tempting thought. But we looked into it regardless and soon fell in love with all the things playernet.games changed or did different than greedfor... uhm I mean the other publisher, such as proper instance design, long-time motivation through item refinement and the purple stats (which by the way achieved what the red stats failed to be - something special to fine tune your gear) and an AWESOME support and GM team that really cares for the players and listens to them. While it's pretty difficult to pick a favorite among all these features of Arcadia, I think it's the (working) communication between players and developers that amazes me the most.
I like spending my time ingame mostly by running Gorge of the Ice Giants with my guild (kudos to the developers, pretty fun instance) and trying to solo the non-custom instances for fun and item set skills.
Sorry for the wall of text, but I figured this to be the perfect opportunity for feedback regarding Chronicles of Arcadia
